Profink gmbh, owners of the first rubble master rm70 has completed its fifth job since buying the machine in October 2004. The apartment block demolition in Bottrop called for an extremely quiet machine and a quick delivery schedule. According to managing director Heiko Fink the RM70's almost silent operation, compact dimensions, and an overall weight of just 20 tonnes helped Profink win the contract. “The RM70 can easily be transported on a three-axle low-loader, quickly and easily set up anywhere ready for operation in just 10 minutes. We don't need permission to transport our equipment and are therefore ready for action faster,” said Mr Fink.

At the site Profink crushed brick rubble, concrete and other materials. “The main criteria were limited space on site and a capacity of 500 to 800 tonnes/day. After processing, the material was used on site to fill the existing basement and create a smooth surface,” added Mr Fink.
